We use the component approach in our starter. This is the new standard for developing Angular apps and a great way to ensure maintainable code by encapsulation of our behavior logic. A component is basically a self contained app usually in a single file or a folder with each concern as a file: style, template, specs, e2e, and component class. Here's how it looks:
angular2-webpack-starter/
├──config/ * our configuration
| ├──helpers.js * helper functions for our configuration files
| ├──spec-bundle.js * ignore this magic that sets up our angular 2 testing environment
| ├──karma.conf.js * karma config for our unit tests
| ├──protractor.conf.js * protractor config for our end-to-end tests
│ ├──webpack.dev.js * our development webpack config
│ ├──webpack.prod.js * our production webpack config
│ └──webpack.test.js * our testing webpack config
│
├──src/ * our source files that will be compiled to javascript
| ├──main.browser.ts * our entry file for our browser environment
│ │
| ├──index.html * Index.html: where we generate our index page
│ │
| ├──polyfills.ts * our polyfills file
│ │
| ├──vendor.ts * our vendor file
│ │
│ ├──app/ * WebApp: folder
│ │ ├──app.spec.ts * a simple test of components in app.ts
│ │ ├──app.e2e.ts * a simple end-to-end test for /
│ │ └──app.ts * App.ts: a simple version of our App component components
│ │
│ └──assets/ * static assets are served here
│ ├──icon/ * our list of icons from www.favicon-generator.org
│ ├──service-worker.js * ignore this. Web App service worker that's not complete yet
│ ├──robots.txt * for search engines to crawl your website
│ └──humans.txt * for humans to know who the developers are
│
│
├──tslint.json * typescript lint config
├──typedoc.json * typescript documentation generator
├──tsconfig.json * config that webpack uses for typescript
├──package.json * what npm uses to manage it's dependencies
└──webpack.config.js * webpack main configuration file
What you need to run this app:
node
andnpm
(brew install node
)- Ensure you're running the latest versions Node
v4.x.x
+ (orv5.x.x
) and NPM3.x.x
+
Once you have those, you should install these globals with npm install --global
:
webpack
(npm install --global webpack
)webpack-dev-server
(npm install --global webpack-dev-server
)karma
(npm install --global karma-cli
)protractor
(npm install --global protractor
)typescript
(npm install --global typescript
)
fork
this repoclone
your forknpm install webpack-dev-server rimraf webpack -g
to install required global dependenciesnpm install
to install all dependenciesnpm run server
to start the dev server in another tab
After you have installed all dependencies you can now run the app. Run npm run server
to start a local server using webpack-dev-server
which will watch, build (in-memory), and reload for you. The port will be displayed to you as http://0.0.0.0:3000
(or if you prefer IPv6, if you're using express
server, then it's http://[::1]:3000/
).

Configuration files live in config/
we are currently using webpack, karma, and protractor for different stages of your application
You can include more examples as components but they must introduce a new concept such as Home
component (separate folders), and Todo (services). I'll accept pretty much everything so feel free to open a Pull-Request
To take full advantage of TypeScript with autocomplete you would have to install it globally and use an editor with the correct TypeScript plugins.
TypeScript 1.7.x includes everything you need. Make sure to upgrade, even if you installed TypeScript previously.
npm install --global typescript
We have good experience using these editors:
- Visual Studio Code
- Webstorm 10
- Atom with TypeScript plugin
- Sublime Text with Typescript-Sublime-Plugin
Install Debugger for Chrome and see docs for instructions to launch Chrome
The included .vscode
automatically connects to the webpack development server on port 3000
.
